Hey Carlos Sainz Jnr, the Ferrari F1 team’s salary should be enough to stroll for your father’s iconic 1994 WRC drive. This Subaru Prodrive 555 Group A is being auctioned at Lloyds.

Once driven by Colin McRae and Carlos Sainz, it was retired in 1996. Since then it has had a few owners, made the rounds of a few demonstration rally events – but ended up only in a barn.

“When we first saw this car, it was a barn find, valued at between $ 15,000 and $ 20,000. Today it had a thorough cleaning and history review, and it could well be worth more than $ 1 million, ”said Lee Hames, Lloyds Auctions chief operating officer.

The Subi is equipped with the original 2.0-liter turbo engine and six-speed manual transmission.

“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own such a unique vehicle and we are honored to be passing it on to the new caretaker,” continued Hames.
